- Thy servant:
- "And when Abnerª was returnedª° to Hebron,ª Joabª took him asideª° inªª the gateª to speakª° with¹ him quietly,ª and smoteª° him there¹ under the fifthª [rib], that he died,ª° for the bloodª of Asahelª his brother.ª" {2Sm 3:27} + "Thy handsª [were] not¹ bound,ª° nor¹ thy feetª putª° into fetters:ª as a man¹ fallethª° beforeª wickedª men,ª [so] fellestª° thou. And all¹ the peopleª weptª° againª° over¹ him." {2Sm 3:34} + "Deliverª° me from all¹¹ my transgressions:ª makeª° me not¹ the reproachª of the foolish.ª" {Psa 39:8} + "All¹ they shall speakª° and sayª° unto thee, Art thou¹ also¹ become weakª° as we? art thou become likeª° unto¹ us?" {Isa 14:10} + "Neither¹ hath Samariaª committedª° halfª of thy sins;ª but thou hast multipliedª°¹ thine abominationsª more than¹ they,² and hast justifiedª°¹ thy sistersª in all¹ thine abominationsª which¹ thou hast done.ª° ... Thou¹ also,¹ which¹ hast judgedª° thy sisters,ª bearª° thine own shameª for thy sinsª that¹ thou hast committed more abominableª° than¹ they:² they are more righteousª° than¹ thou: yea, be thou confoundedª°¹ also,¹ and bearª° thy shame,ª in that thou hast justifiedª° thy sisters.ª" {Ezk 16:51-52}
